JCCC goes mobile
“Today the first phase of the college’s mobile website at m.jccc.edu goes live. If you access the college’s website from a smartphone, you’ll now get the mobile site (you’ll be able to access the regular website from there as well). Thanks are due Information Services and Web Publishing for their work on this project; they’ll immediately move on to phase 2 (and 3 and 4 . . .) to add more mobile information and access for the college. Learn more about JCCC’s mobile website at http://www.jccc.edu/about/mobile.html. Have comments on the mobile site or suggestions for future phases? Contact Karen Davis, manager, web publishing.”

OHEC at JCCC gets gold rating for sustainable construction; building is first at college to receive LEED certification
“JCCC has received gold certification for its earth-friendly construction of the Olathe Health Education Center, exceeding its promise of a LEED-certified silver building. The LEED program (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a nationally recognized green building certification system supervised by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). In 2008, JCCC President Terry Calaway signed the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment, promising that all new construction at JCCC would meet the dictates of a LEED-certified silver building. A silver certification is earned by scoring at least 50 points in areas such as water and energy usage, materials used in construction and environmental quality inside the building. OHEC received 67 points, earning it the higher certification of gold. OHEC is the first JCCC building to be LEED certified. Read more about the certification here.”
